Performing Knowledge, 1750-1850 (Interdisciplinary German Cultural Studies) (Interdisciplinary German Cultural Studies, 18) - Hardcover
Synopsis
The period between 1750 and 1850 was a time when knowledge and its modes of transmission were reconsidered and reworked in fundamental ways. Social and political transformations, such as the French Revolution and the Industrial Revolution, went hand in hand with in new ways of viewing, sensing, and experiencing what was perceived to be a rapidly changing world. This volume brings together a range of essays that explore the performance of knowledge in the period from 1750 to 1850, in the broadest possible sense. The essays explore a wide variety of literary, theatrical, and scientific events staged during this period, including scientific demonstrations, philosophical lectures, theatrical performances, stage design, botany primers, musical publications, staged Schiller memorials, acoustic performances, and literary declamations. These events served as vital conduits for the larger process of generating, differentiating, and circulating knowledge. By unpacking the significance of performance and performativity for the creation and circulation of knowledge in Germany during this period, the volume makes an important contribution to interdisciplinary German cultural studies, performance studies, and the history of knowledge.

Performing Knowledge, 1750-1850 (Interdisciplinary German Cultural Studies)
Seller: killarneybooks, Inagh, CLARE, Ireland
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Hardcover, vi + 378 pages, b&w and colour illustrations in text, NOT ex-library. Mild handling wear, book is clean and bright with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Issued without a dust jacket. -- This volume offers a collection of essays exploring how knowledge was publicly performed, validated, and disseminated in the German-speaking world between 1750 and 1850. The work moves beyond traditional theatre studies to analyze a wide range of cultural practices, including scientific demonstrations, public lectures, anatomical dissections, and musical concerts. The contributors argue that these performative events were not merely illustrative but were central to the construction of scientific authority, the shaping of aesthetic sensibilities, and the formation of a modern public sphere.
